Terrified is the seventh album Quiet Riot recorded for Charles Band's movie Dollman vs. Demonic Toys, and was released on Moonstone Records, the soundtrack off-shoot of Band's film company Full Moon Entertainment. It features bassist Kenny Hillery, former bandmate of DuBrow and Cavazo in the band Heat. Drummer Bobby Rondinelli plays on several songs.
The song "Itchycoo Park" is a cover of the Small Faces' single from 1967. This was not the first time the band had covered a Small Faces song, they had also done covers of their music on their first two albums, which featured Randy Rhoads.
This is the first Quiet Riot album released internationally not to feature the production work of Spencer Proffer.
In 1994, the album won the American Indie Music Award for the Heavy Metal category.

Famous quotes containing the word terrified:
“When a poor disconsolated drooping creature is terrified from all enjoyment,—prays without ceasing ‘till his imagination is heated,—fasts and mortifies and mopes, till his body is in as bad a plight as his mind; is it a wonder, that the mechanical disturbances ... of an empty belly, interpreted by an empty head, should be mistook for [the] workings [of God].”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“Now I am terrified at the Earth, it is that calm and patient,
It grows such sweet things out of such corruptions,
It turns harmless and stainless on its axis, with such endless
successions of diseas’d corpses,
It distills such exquisite winds out of such infused fetor,
It renews with such unwitting looks its prodigal, annual, sumptuous
crops,
It gives such divine materials to men, and accepts such leavings
from them at last.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“She is not terrified of
begonias or telegrams but
surely this nightgown girl,
this awesome flyer, has not seen
how the moon floats through her
and in between.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
